Post your Haiku screenshot!

Forum thread started by drcouzelis on Thu, 2012-06-21 02:54

Post a screenshot of what you're doing in Haiku!

Please post only thumbnails or links.

You're welcome to talk about what you're currently working on in the screenshot. If you have a particulary neat configuration or wallpaper, please tell us about it! Especially welcome are screenshots where you were doing something that caused you to say "Wow, Haiku is really coming along nicely as a full featured desktop operating system". ;)

Busy: http://ompldr.org/vZWY0NQ

I spent all evening working on my first Haiku GUI application, and learning a lot about the Haiku API. I used Paladin, Pe, and git for my programming. In other desktops, I have WebPositive loaded with Gmail, Caya logged in with my four IM accounts, and PoorMan hosting my personal files.

Clean: http://ompldr.org/vZWY0Nw

Wallpaper is "Wind" by pincel3d: http://pincel3d.deviantart.com/gallery/?q=wind

I have a separate BFS partition named "BeDrive". I save my personal files there so I don't lose them when I update Haiku.

What is the status of Beezer on Haiku ??

What? Wasn't there just a thread about how there isn't a version of emacs for Haiku? WHAT SORCERY IS THIS?

Nice work on Beezer. I'll try it out tonight!

I had the same exact thought!

Also nice idea for this thread, since I know you like the Arch forums I can tell the similarity to their monthly screenshot threads.

Unfortunately I don't have a decent screenshot at the moment, but I'll try to take one this week and post it here. I've wanted to see some people's Haiku screenshots/setups for a while, I just never managed to start this sort of forum topic for it.

Re: Post your Haiku screenshot!

Nice thread!
Here's mine: http://s16.postimage.org/6q3kjz9tx/Haiku_Desktop.png

@ Augiedoggie: how did you change Deskbar's logo?

Re: Post your Haiku screenshot!

@augiedoggie: I love Beezer, great to see you working on it. Do you implement vector icons? Need help creating some (not that I'm that good at it, but often it's easier to work with mediocre first attempts than to come up with it all from scratch (though one would try to lift as much as possible from existing icons of course))?

@ Giovanni: What's that calender app on the desktop? Seeing it in the Deskbar and missing it's handle, it's not a Replicant apparently. Can it be "replicanted"?

@augiedoggie: nice haiku menu logo,care to share how you managed to change it?

Re: Post your Haiku screenshot!

This is amazing! I had no idea people were using Haiku for so many different "real" things. :-O

Yes! As was already requested, how did you change the Deskbar icon to the Haiku logo?

Seriously, I think having it be the Haiku logo makes much more sense than a blue leaf. I always (and by "always" I mean "twice") seem to run into the situation where I'm guiding someone in Haiku and I'll say "Click on the leaf menu" and they'll be like "The what?" and then I remember that I can't blame them for not understanding me because there are no blue leaves that are shaped like feathers in nature. ;)

What bittorrent and chat application do you use? Actually, I pretty much want to know what all of those desktop icons link to. :D

Re: Post your Haiku screenshot!

mmadia wrote:

That intrigued me too, and I looked on Haikuware and I assume it it this:

http://haikuware.com/directory/start-download/internet-network/miscellan...

Source is included so we can even hack on it if we want (well those of us who can code C++.)

I've had thoughts of blogging more here with features on neat little apps like this, because sometimes things can go unnoticed on Haikuware.

Re: Post your Haiku screenshot!

emacs
I believe I responded to the other thread about emacs. I have a slightly older version running(23.3?) that I haven't added to the ports repository yet. The latest dev branch is having runtime issues that I haven't investigated.

Beezer
The current status is that it's as functional as it was on BeOS. I've fixed a few bugs along the way and started converting some of the windows to the layout kit. If someone wants to contribute vector icons(or anything else) they are more than welcome.

DeskbarWeather
This is just something I was toying around with. There are still many improvements to make on it. The repository is at https://bitbucket.org/cpr/dbweather

The Deskbar logo
This is just an image from the Haiku repository that was resized. Then it's just a matter of replacing the appropriate resource in Deskbar. I have a patch that you can apply when building Haiku but it is also possible to replace the resource in an already built system. The patch I use is at http://pastebin.com/wQCk5AdF

QBittorrent for bittorrent and Psi+ for chat. Is more stable and complete than Caya: it support (via jabber servers) a lot of services, avatars, detailed profile, offline messages and is fully configurable.
"Scythia" is an ftp manager (QT)
"CdToMp3Ripper": http://haikuware.com/directory/view-details/multimedia/audio/mp3-endodin...
"Games" is a script that open "filepanel" to a folder where i placed links to games (and emulators too)
"Player" is a script that use mplayer.

Re: Post your Haiku screenshot!

First one is Haiku running on my main computer, about a year ago. HD video played fine on VLC!

http://tinypic.com/r/25tb8yw/6

Currently running Haiku on my Thinkpad X40, works great. WIFI works (atheros chip), just waiting for the WPA2 to work once alpha4 comes. Does Koffice work on Alpha 3? I wanna see how it does with office documents.

Re: Post your Haiku screenshot!

I see you have a MSN Messenger icon, which one of those applications works for MSN?

Your calender and clock look great!

WPA2 works in Haiku. You have to run this command inside Terminal:

installoptionalpackage wpa_supplicant

Re: Post your Haiku screenshot!

As i've said few posts ago, i'm using Psi+. Psi+ uses jabber servers (for example jabber.rueckgr.at), and with jabber you can use a lot of services (called transport): msn, google talk, yahoo, Facebook, etc.. etc..

MSN chat also works in Caya.

Look at that. Not only is there software for you to use in Haiku, but you even have options! ;)

Sure ;-)

But at the moment Caya is buggy, cannot send offline messages, in its gui you cannot change your avatar/profile (at least with msn) and crash very often. At the moment Psi+ is most mature and complete. Did you have tried it? :-)

Re: Post your Haiku screenshot!

I think my post sounded a little rude. I'm sorry. I meant, "I'm happy because Haiku has a growing number of applications". :)

Hey Doctor :-) Don't you worry! Your post has no sounded rude! I understand what you mean, and i'm happy too, that Haiku has a growing number of applications :-)

Re: Post your Haiku screenshot!

OK, thank you. I saw Jabber and thought that Jabber was a different network. I will go and download it and see if it install ok on my laptop.

Re: Post your Haiku screenshot!

LOL, you are right. It is Haiku Media Player. I was mesmerized by Rebecca Black : )

WPA2 works in Haiku. You have to run this command inside Terminal:

I will try it. But if not, I think I will stick with Alpha 3 and wired so I can enjoy using Haiku without more instability than necessary from a nightly.

Re: Post your Haiku screenshot!

Hi,

well, screenshots...
While i'm trying to establish a HAIKU workhorse at work for me (at least when R1A4 arrives) i did a recent shot last day. But it is not that stylish in a funky manner, because focus changed (RealLife™ issues) a little bit from installing, running and testing HAIKU at home on 6 to 8 different machines (mostly for HW compatibility tests) to get an old dream come true and using HAIKU as my main OS at work.
At the moment it's just fiddeling with it, when A4 is out AND i'm successful to catch, say 80% of my needs, i'll give a deeper look inside perhaps.

Re: Post your Haiku screenshot!

Just to clarify about Giova84 latest screen shot (very cool indeed!) and to give shameless self-promotion and plug :)

3 of my apps are used:

1) ClearCalendar: http://haikuware.com/remository/view-details/utilities/desktop-accessori...
2) ClockH: http://haikuware.com/remository/view-details/utilities/desktop-accessori...
and
3) BeDock (the bottom dock with the background set to 100% transparent): http://haikuware.com/remository/view-details/utilities/desktop-accessori...

You might also like my mac rip-off of Dashboard call Corkboard: http://haikuware.com/remository/view-details/utilities/desktop-accessori...

Also I'm working on (although not too often) on a new Dock - here's the preview app (not very confirgurable): http://haikuware.com/remository/view-details/utilities/desktop-accessori...

To Giova84 - I really like the icons on your BeDock and also the new HVIF icons that you changed for my ClearCalendar app and ClockH app.

hey68you

Hi hey68you!

There is nothing wrong in your self-promotion! ;-)

Yes: as you con see i am a customizer! Ehehe!

I hope that soon you will release the final and fully configurable version.. HiDock seems work better than BeDock :-)

Re: Post your Haiku screenshot!

I finally bought a new video card. I bought a fairly modern fanless card, because I'm tired of listening to my computer when I'm in the living room. I bought a Radeon HD 5450 PCI-E and it works FLAWLESSLY with Haiku. Thank you for your hard work on the video drivers!

I also started using my all time favorite old school desktop wallpaper. Bonus Internet points for anyone who knows where it's from. ;)

You can do a search for *.jpg on BeShare. There are a bunch of BeOS themed wallpapers there. I don't know if any of them were actually put out by Be or not though.
